Only if you’re using the Android app or the web browser plugin, the actual core system does not.
They could lock Bitwarden out tomorrow and Valtwarden would still work fine.
Then people would just have to write specific application and plugin if they wanted to continue to use it with no change.
The web interface would be fine.

The web interface is from bitwarden. Technically they could fork it but that would be much more work.

No it is not, the web interface is the page you get when you browse to the swrver directly, it is very different from the Bitwarden one.
Zachariah@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago great suggestion

Can I simply migrate content from Bitwarden to Vaultwarden?
I couldn’t tell from looking at the faq or wiki.
TrippyHippyDan@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
It’s been a long while, but I believe you just export from Bitwarden and import into Vaultwarden.

I would say yes. I use vaultwarden with bitwarden clients, but I don't know for sure, the best way to know is try it.....xdddd

Is there another client we can use with vaultwarden though? (In the scenario wgere that gets locked down)
Azazel@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
The web interface is hosted directly by your vaultwarden interface so it’s not lockdown-able. The only things that are would be the browser extension and phone apps. Both of which are formally unnecessary because you can always just use the web interface. I’m sure if they ever locked down there’d be community versions in no time as they’re basically just web wrappers anyway.

The apps keep a synced local copy, so if the server is down or unreachable you can still get to your passwords. That can also be locked by biometrics etc.
There’s a lot of stuff that without be lost by going to just the web interface
Azazel@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
The web app keeps a local synced copy too btw. Biometric is fair tho
WuxinGoat@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
Ah of course, perhaps i’ll give that a go and see how it goes.

There is an iOS app for Vaultwarden. Under that name.

Don’t see one for Android. And for the rest I just online.
